Let's open minds and shift culture

Have you ever seen a film and thought, "If only everyone could see that! People would start to think
differently..."

Recently, you may have received a letter from Dror Moreh, the award-winning Israeli filmmaker of such a film,
called The Gatekeepers. Moreh wrote this letter for Americans for Peace Now, the U.S. sister organization of
Israel's peace movement, Shalom Achshav. This documentary film features all six living former leaders of Israel's
Shin Bet security service, each of whom advocates a position they share with Shalom Achshav: that Israel must reach
a negotiated peace agreement with a Palestinian partner. The letter was very successful - we were flooded with
messages from people who wanted to see this incredibly important film and support the work of APN and Shalom Achshav.

I believe in the power of art to open minds and shift culture. We have all seen the critical role art has played in
the dramatic shift in U.S. opinion about LGBTQ rights over the past two decades, including same-sex marriage. Art
can be a critical part of our efforts to change the way Americans understand the Israeli occupation and the
pathways to peace. That's why we want to offer you another opportunity to get this film and see it for yourself.
